Some 42 participants from 33 countries gathered in Brussels from 22-24 June for the European Athletics Women’s Leadership Seminar, a follow-up to the high successful Women in World Athletics Seminars which were held annually from 2013 to 2017.

Not only were the male and female Rising Stars and European Athletes of the Year announced and presented with their awards, the European Athletics Golden Tracks award ceremony in Vilnius, Lithuania on Saturday (14) evening also recognised outstanding coaches and women’s leaders in athletics.

After two weeks of voting on our European Athletics Facebook page, the winning artwork to be presented as the main prize to the Women’s Leadership Award winners at the Golden Tracks ceremony in Vilnius, Lithuania on 14 October has been chosen.
